Summary

The Beaver Island Community School National Honor Society organized a Valentines for Soldiers collection in January 2012. Students from pre-K through 12th grade were making cards, and community members could contribute cards, items, gifts, or donations for Operation American Soldier.

Evidence limits

The forum announcement establishes the planned collection and deadline but does not document the number of participants, cards sent, or final delivery.

Sources

The school adviser announced that PreK–12 students were making Valentine cards and that community cards, items, gifts, and donations would be collected through January 19 for shipment by Operation American Soldier. The thread documents the announced collection, not the number of cards or shipment outcome.
